Selection bias - the title of the other Ask HN was "Do you make more than $200K? What did you have to do?", after all.
Secondly, I think there's a difference between "totally normal" and "not outlandish". Most sentiment falls in the latter unless you're asking people in the Battery Club.
Considering most managers are making $170-180k base, a $200k base is not outlandish for someone who has specialized knowledge in high demand.

- et-al 10y agoPrivate club with a $2400 annual fee. One would assume that if you're spending that much on a place to drink without the commoners, you're making over $200k or aspiring to be.
